What to do with vintage-ish fabric D:??

I bought a yard of this fabric - it was only 50 pesos a yard which is about a dollar. I'm thinking i should have bought two yards but I only got one.

I want to do something vintage inspired with it, but I can't decide!

I was thinking, flower brooch, maybe a coin purse...I dunno what to do XD what do you guys think?

I dont know how to put fotos in a post soooo....

Here's a picture of it: http://tinypic.com/r/359baq0/7

Happy Crafting :3

I think an elastic waist skirt would be cute with that fabric.

maybe make some home decor. I think covering an old canvas frame with the fabric or putting it in a vintage frame would make a lovely piece of wall art. I'm currently working on one.
